I became certified as a Florida Coastal Master Naturalist and volunteer at a Florida wetlands preserve documenting wildlife with both video and photos for walks and talks, and posts for the parks department’s website. I grew up in Indiana and have spent my adult life on the west coast of Florida. I hold an M.S. Ed. in Administration and Supervision and have recently retired, devoting more time to nature.
I have a keen interest in the behavior of invertebrates, most often Lepidoptera, especially mimicry, camouflage, myrmecophily, and all sorts of defensive behavior at any stage of an animal’s life.
